About Pickard China:
A respected manufacturer of fine china established in Wisconsin in 1893 by Wilder Austin Pickard, the company eventually relocated to its present facilities in Antioch, IL. Through the years, Pickard has been selected by the U.S. Department of State to manufacture the official service of china used by our embassies, Air Force One, Camp David, and Blair House (the official residence for guests of the U.S. president). Today, Pickard China ranks among the finest in the world and is noted for its graceful shapes and beautiful decorations. Pickard China is hand crafted by skilled American artisans, and the company has earned a reputation as makers of America’s Finest China. The dishes have a feel of lightness and delicacy while maintaining unusual strength. China glazing is of remarkable brilliance and hardness.
How to care for Pickard China:
Be advised: This is presidential grade china designed for refined use. With careful handling, these fine china dinnerware sets and fine china gifts can be passed down from one generation to the next. The State Seal of Texas, Texas Star and American Eagle patterns are detailed with the highest quality 24 karat gold accents. If you are planning to use china where scratching or jostling may be a factor, consider the sturdy, everyday dinnerware patterns from our Texas dinnerware and other items from our corporate gifts collections instead.
Dishwasher Safe?
While a hand wash usually gives satisfying results, all of our Pickard china patterns can also be safely washed in home dishwashers for sanitizing purposes; however, dishes should be loaded with care, the dishwasher should not be overfilled, and a mild detergent should be used. Note: these are not oven, freezer or microwave safe and use in these appliances would void any factory warranty. The limited warranty is available only to the original purchaser when purchased through Texas Crazy, your Pickard China authorized retailer.
